"What else can I do? If I don’t go, Zhou Liang will just find other women!"
Upon hearing Liu Rumei’s words, Liu Yushui’s eyes suddenly reddened, she lowered her voice and yelled, and after she finished yelling, tears fell from her eyes.
"Instead of letting him find other women, wouldn’t it be better if I don’t want this child, tightly bind him to me, so that he doesn’t even have the chance to find other women?"
From her previous desperate desire to protect the child, she has now changed her mind.
What’s the importance of a child? The key is the man. If the man is seduced by another woman, what use is it for her to have a child, to burden herself, to anchor herself down?
This is not the life she wants to live.
Liu Rumei was almost furious to death by her, raising her hand and slapping her in the face.
"Zhou Liang is looking for you now, isn’t it for the child in your belly? If this child is gone, and his mother pushes him again, will he still come looking for you? You are no longer the young mistress of the Liu family. How many women like you can he find if he wants to?"
"What should I do then?"
Liu Yushui also felt that what her mother said was right, but what could she do now, Zhou Liang had already developed a taste for her.
If she rejects Zhou Liang now, he will definitely get even angrier. Then he might not care about the child at all, what should I do then?
"In that case, I still have a few taels of silver..."
Upon hearing the half-sentence from Liu Rumei, Liu Yushui was stunned.
They were living such a tough life; her mother clearly had silver but refused to take it out. What did that mean?
"Mother, if you have silver, why don’t you... Hmm."
"Would you like to scream a little louder? Afraid your father won’t hear?"
Liu Rumei covered Liu Yushui’s mouth with her hand, her eyes full of warning.
"Shut up, do you hear me?"
Liu Yushui quickly nodded.
Only then did Liu Rumei take back her hand and spoke to Liu Yushui again.
"So, I’ll go to the dentist’s shop later, pick a little maid that suits your taste, keep her by your side. Zhou Liang likes that kind of stuff, if you can’t handle it, let the maid replace you."
Liu Yushui was shocked.
How could her mother come up with such an idea, going as far as to sacrifice her food and drink money to buy a maid, and then send that maid to Zhou Liang’s side? Isn’t that like lifting a rock only to drop it on herself?
"How can this work? What if Zhou Liang is bewitched, what should I do?"
"Why would he be bewitched? The slave contract is in your hands. Besides, I will make a good choice, select one that cannot bear children. As long as she can’t get pregnant, Zhou Liang won’t take her seriously. She’s just a substitute for you."
Liu Rumei didn’t care, thinking this was the best idea.
"Besides, even if she can bear children, so what? The person is in your hands. You can watch her all the time. If she gets pregnant, you can just abort it. What are you afraid of? Having been the young mistress of the Liu Residence for so many years, can’t you even control a maid?"
Liu Yushui opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
Could she say that she didn’t want to send a woman to Zhou Liang at all?
But, if she can keep the child, and also keep Zhou Liang, she thinks this method might be quite good.
